Lokpal Bill

The Indian Act was created in 1876 and has been amended many times through history. The Act was created by European settlers under the British crown in order to assert control over the Indigenous people of Canada. It developed into the takeover of Indigenous land, imposed the rule of the Crown on Indigenous affairs, openly allowed discrimination, and restricts hunting. Also, the act implemented the abolishment of band councils, entrapment within harsh reserve living conditions, the creation of residential schools, the constraint on traditions, culture, ceremonies, and the systematic growth of cultural genocide. This racist relic has imposed a great deal of injustice towards Indigenous people. It establishes a “us v. them” mentality and separates

Thesis: The Indian Act effectively required Aboriginals to give up large amounts of land and rights followed by moving onto reserves. It negatively changed the lives of many Indian men and women who married non-status Aboriginals and harshly withdrew Aboriginal children from their families and put them into residential schools for the purposes assimilation. The Indian Act was known for creating an atrocious life for Indians.

One of the things that made Gandhi’s nonviolent movement work is mass appeal. Mass appeal helped because people liked him, which meant more people did what he. In Document B it says “Gandhi’s body is in jail but his soul is with you. India’s prestige is in your hands. You must not use any violence under any circumstances” this quote shows that even when he was in prison, his mass appeal

The Indian Act document signed in 1876, resulted in the first nation people to give up their land, religion, culture, and rights. The government wanted the first nation people to give up their Indian status and be them, follow their culture.

Mahatma Gandhi is renowned all over the world for his nonviolent philosophies and impact upon civil rights. He was the primary leader of India’s move towards independence. Gandhi engineered a form of non-violent protest that would influence the world. He was born on 2nd October, 1869, in Porbandar, India. Gandhi studied law and advocated for the civil rights of Indians, and influenced many civil rights movements. Even after his death, Gandhi’s actions inspired future civil rights movements around the globe. He most notably impacted, civil rights movements in three regions of the world; South Africa, India and America.

Furthermore, other groups have decidedly declared their opposition to this recent presidential election in the forms of the International Women 's March and the boycott against Uber. Regardless of the time period, Gandhi 's methods help ensure that the common man has a voice in society.

The Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) of 1934, otherwise known as the Wheeler-Howard Act or the Indian New Deal, was a United States federal legislation that attempted to reverse traditional U.S policy, which typically forced Indian assimilation into american culture and regularly took Indian reservation land. It was a radical act in its time and was introduced into congress by John Collier, who was head of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). The IRA’s main goal was to provide a means for Native Americans to establish sovereignty and self-government, reduce the amount of land loss by reservations, and to build economic self sufficiencies for these tribes. The act also ended the Allotment System and provided loans for Indians to pursue higher education and farm their lands. Whether or not the act was considered a longstanding success is heavily debated, by historians and Native Americans leaders alike.

Disadvantages include the loss of the First Nation’s right to govern themselves and the loss of the right to vote

M.K. Gandhi was an Indian who protested successfully against Britain and ultimately influenced future events around the world. Gandhi’s most successful tactic to gain Indian independence was “Satyagraha” or passive resistance because the majority of society would disagree with the opponent, they will continue to protest no matter what, and it was successfully used in the Salt March. Firstly, using this tactic, about 80 Indian citizens were publically brutalized by British authorities which greatly influenced the world against them because an eyewitness wrote and sent thousands of newspapers, talking about British police brutality, around the world. For example, in Source 3 the text says, “Webb Miller’s eyewitness account was published in over a thousand newspapers around the world.”

I support the principle view of the author mentioning of the ultimate outcome of self-determination, is to have the “right to maintain traditional culture, and to protect their land and natural resources” (p.3). It is truly a difficult outcome to achieve and many indigenous communities (tribes) are still struggling with it, including Fiji indigenous communities.

Born in Porbandar, India, Gandhi studied law and organized boycotts against British institutions in peaceful forms of civil protest. He was killed in 1948.Even after Gandhi’s assassination, his commitment to nonviolence and his belief in simple living,making his own clothes, eating a vegetarian diet and using fasts for self-purification as well as a means of protest have been a beacon of hope for oppressed people throughout the world. Gandhi’s actions inspired future human rights movements around the

Gandhi opposed the country's controversial motion to fingerprint and document all Indians, leading to his many achievements in the field of civil disobedience. Gandhi became the face of a movement of noncompliance. Thousands of Indians rejected the new law, resulting in their eventual arrests (along with Gandhi). Although they were arrested, it was the statement made that counted. Gandhi and his followers were able to lead a movement against the current, fully demonstrating their power with the organization of the month long Salt March in response to the egregious salt tax that weighed heavily on impoverished Indians. Gandhi led thousands to the coast of the Arabian Sea in seek of Salt. Due to his rebellion to the law, Ghandi and some 60,000 more were arrested, and others were violently beaten by British police. However, the March continued on. Eventually, Gandhi made a deal that resulted in the end of the March, and in return, an amending of the tax. This is a prime exhibit of the wonder of civil

If the legislative branch does not agree with the way in which the judicial branch has interpreted the law, they can introduce a new piece of legislation, and the process starts all over again.They can initiate a constitutional amendment(changes in its written words), if the state ratify( Ratification is a principal 's approval of an act of its agent where the agent lacked authority to legally bind the principal.) it, that can make a Supreme Court ruling void. Congress can amend the Constitution to overturn decisions of the Supreme Court.Congress can create lower courts.(Judicial branch) .

Once Gandhi’s mission in South Africa was complete, he returned to India and became involved in the home ruling movement. He was concerned with excessive land tax and discrimination, so he organized protests by peasants, farmers, and urban laborers to help them stand tall and fight for what they deserved (Gold 57).

Eventually Gandhi helped pave the way for India’s independence however it wasn’t all over. India began to divide between Muslim’s and Hindu’s and it was settled that the North and Eastern parts of India would be given to Muslim’s and called Pakistan and Hindu’s would be left with the rest of India as their homeland. Thus happening all against Gandhi’s wishes. As scenes move on, Gandhi takes ill, and it becomes known that he has gone on a hunger strike due to the violence between Muslims and Hindu’s. At one point it is clarified
